[Verse 1]
[D]When I was a kid I heard
the [G]wild wind [D]call
And I figured I couldn't [A]stay
So I [D]went to the river [G]to
cross the other [D]side
But the river was [A]cold that [D]day
The river was cold that [G]day,
so I [D]turned and I walked [A]away
Other [D]wild wind was calling
and [G]I couldn't s[D]tay
But the river was [A]cold that [D]day[A][D]
Soon I was a young man with
[G]dreams in my [D]head
And the old folks were only in my [A]way
So I [D]ran to the river to
[G]cross the other [D]side
But the river was [A]deep that [D]day
The river was deep that [G]day,
so I [D]turned and walked the other [A]way
But I [D]made a promise I'd [G]come back some [D]day,
but the river was [A]deep that [D]day[A][D]
Somehow I got married,
had a [G]wife and a job
[D]And a new car, a pile of bills to [A]pay
One night I [D]sneaked to the river
to [G]cross the other [D]side
But the river was [A]wide that [D]day
The river was wide that [G]day
So I [D]fought a while and
slowly walked [A]away
Hell, I [D]ain't no good a swimmer
and the [G]shore was far away
[D]Ah, the river was wid[A]e that day[D]
[G][D][A][D]
[A][D][G][D][A]
[D]
Oh, now I'm an old man,
I [G]watch my children grow
[D]Can't believe how the
years slip [A]away
Now they're [D]building a bridge
[G]across the other [D]side
Cause the river ran [A]dry [D]today
The river ran dry [G]today
Just like [D]me, time washed it [A]away
Now I'm [D]watching the sunset,
guess that's [G]all there's left to [D]say
Cause the river ran [A]dry [D]today
Yeah, the river ran [A]dry today
[D][A]
